This Queen Anne Victorian home presents the timeless elegance and charming details you would expect to find in a home built in 1888, complete with a characteristic turret. This style of home was designed and built from a maximalist view as a general guiding principal with a highly ornamental layout and design approach. Queen Anne style American Victorian homes typically have an irregular shape with an asymmetrical front façade. The list of architectural details is endlessly impressive, and includes details such as intricately carved woodwork, decorative moldings and ornamental ceilings. You will inevitably notice the enchanting stained glass and prominent pocket doors. The updated baths and kitchen offer bygone craftsmanship unified with modern amenities and sensible convenience.
